Actually it is a C130...which is not at all comfortable.
the time has come, bags are packed and we are waiting for the final word. Could be tomorrow and it could be a week. Such is the War Machine! Hopefully it is Sooner and not later because I would really like to see PFC Fullmer become an official member of my beloved gun club.
Either way I should be back in Denver beginning of February and life will go back to the level of normality it was at pre-Iraq. I got a car to fix and ladies to flirt with. Oh and Taco Bell.
A few things I have learned over that last week...70 men stuffed into one tent makes for a VERY stinky home! Rounds somehow jump magazines, it is a strange phenomena but a common one. Irock (pun intended) at combat fitness!
The Marines, in their never ending pursuit on being better, has started an new physical fitness test to get us back to our roots. This test includes Ammo Can lifts, a half mile sprint in boots and Cammies, Causality evacuation, grenade throwing and a lot of running throw cones. This course takes about a total of 7 minutes but it is some serious work and a great measure of ones overall MANLINESS and AWESOMENESS!
Though this new test is not yet graded by points but rather on a pass fail basis, we took scores down for input and I took third overall. Hows that for 3 pounds overweight huh? Everybody must have been drinking WEAKSAUCE while I was drink Milk!
Can't wait to see y'all!

Yippee!! It would be great if you could make it home in time for the blessing. Either way, hope I get to see you soon. (I want to introduce Max to his crazy Uncle John.)
Way to go in the manliness competition! Do you work out? :)
I'm glad you are coming home!!! Wish I could see you...
I guess after all that awesomeness, there is only one thing left to do...SUIT UP!
